What we do

ESS is a leading supplier of high-performance syntactic materials and solutions for challenging environments including buoyancy, civil infrastructure, electronics and insulation.

We are exclusively focused on the formulation, engineering and manufacturing of superior quality syntactic foam. We offer a range of products in a variety of densities, depths and other critical-to-performance measurements. Our materials are used for structural core applications, thermal conductivity, ballistic/energy absorption and acoustic management structures.

Our long successful track record in flotation technologies, extensive knowledge of syntactic materials and strong reputation for quality have helped us to become a trusted and valuable industry partner. We’ve worked on critical projects for the U.S. Navy as well as leading organizations in the oceanographic and subsea industries.
